Canada Global (Web News) The national team did not get out of the tournament even after losing 4 matches, but all its hopes are now linked to the results of other teams.
To reach the semi-finals, first Pakistan has to win their remaining three matches and that too by a good margin. It should be clear that Pakistan now has to play matches against Bangladesh, New Zealand and England in the tournament. Along with winning, one has to pray that the New Zealand team loses against Pakistan as well as South Africa and Sri Lanka.
If this happens, then Pakistan will have 10 points and New Zealand will have 8 points, but on the other hand, the result of Sri Lanka will also be in the eyes of Pakistan. Sri Lanka now has to play Afghanistan, India, Bangladesh and New Zealand. The Lankan team has to beat New Zealand but only win one match against India, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
Because if Sri Lanka wins 3 out of remaining 4 matches then they will also get 10 points. If New Zealand wins even one of the 3 matches, they will also get 10 points, in such a situation Pakistan will depend heavily on net run rate.
In the current situation of the tournament, Pakistan’s hopes are still intact and to keep this hope alive till the end, it is necessary for Pakistan to show bravery in the upcoming matches.
